To all those concerned that I have never studied religion or read the bible, I know the story of job like the back of my hand. I know what the book says. This is not the point I was trying to make. The point, in question, is how can an All loving god torture someone to prove a point? Was it worth it to Job to have all the material things once he passed? The object of that story was, to me mind you, that it is ok for God to be cruel to others but it is not ok for us to be that way. Well this to me is a crime. A loving God would never give permission to Satan, the tester by the way, to brutalize a person just to prove that that person would still be a loyal slave to god no matter what happened.
This is only my personal belief, it is not gospel to others.
I believe in a Creator, but not a mean one. One would hope that when one reaches the state of God awareness that they would have lost petty human traits such a jealousy, cruelty, ect.
